What you see is what you get

No excuses anymore. Whenever you look for our institute, now you can easily find it: Since today it is labelled, well visible to everyone. MPI – these three letters at the wall of our building welcome both staff and guests. Just move your eyes up, and you will see it. The meaning of MPI might be clear for many of you. For all others, here is the answer: Max Planck Institute.

„Now we fit well into the pic­ture of Wiener Strasse,” says Rudolf Amann, man­aging dir­ector of the in­sti­tute. Even if the ad­dress of the in­sti­tute is Celsiusstraße, the ma­jor part of the corner build­ing lies along­side Wiener Straße. A street of ab­bre­vi­ations, pic­tured in big let­ters made of metal or plastic. ZMT, FVG, BITZ and now also MPI. “The con­struc­tion of the let­ters is part of a re­design/​re­shap­ing of the in­sti­tute,” ex­plains Amann. The build­ing is cur­rently be­ing ex­pan­ded: At the mo­ment, it is shaped like an L, soon it will be a U.This way there will be more space for re­search groups work­ing on mar­ine mi­cro­bi­o­logy – the area of ex­pert­ise of the MPI in Bre­men.

 

Thus, in the fu­ture there will be even more reas­ons to visit the in­sti­tute. Good thing you can find it even bet­ter now.
